I am currently studying the Fire & Ambulance Access Course/ Nursing Studies in CCL. I am really enjoying my time in the college and the tutors are really helpful and friendly. I came to CCL from Galway because my sister had previously studied Childcare in CCL and is now attending Mary Immaculate College. We both cannot speak highly enough of CCL.
